When two shapes are mathematically similar, that means that all their sides are in a proportion.

We know the sieds of EH and AD, and so we can find the proportion of the shapes using these two sides.

EH/AD = 6/9 = 2/3

The ratio of EFGH to ABCD is 2:3

Now we have to find BC.

Becuase they're in proportion, we can form this equation:

$\frac{8}{BC}$ = $\frac{2}{3}$

Cross multiply:

24 = 2*BC

Divide both sides by 2:

BC = 12 cm

Good luck!

Find the GCF of 18xy and 32xyz

Tanzania [10]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

2xy

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

GCF stands for the greatest common factor.

Finding All Factors

To find the GCF you need to find the factors of each term. First, find the factors of the coefficients.

The factors of 18 include: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9 and 18

The factors of 32 include: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32

Next, lay out the variables that are factors.

The variables of 18xy are x and y.
The variables of 32xyz are x, y, and z.

Remember that variables count as factors

Greatest Common Factor

Now that we have all of the factors we can find the GCF. The GCF will be the largest number and the most variables that are a factor of both terms.

In this case, the largest factor of 18 and 32 is 2. Since both x and y are factors of both terms, the GCF is 2xy.

I think I know this much so far for A (but I could be wrong):

Part A. You have the correct first and second derivative.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Part B. You'll need to be more specific. What I would do is show how the quantity (-2x+1)^4 is always nonnegative. This is because x^4 = (x^2)^2 is always nonnegative. So (-2x+1)^4 >= 0. The coefficient -10a is either positive or negative depending on the value of 'a'. If a > 0, then -10a is negative. Making h ' (x) negative. So in this case, h(x) is monotonically decreasing always. On the flip side, if a < 0, then h ' (x) is monotonically increasing as h ' (x) is positive.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Part C. What this is saying is basically "if we change 'a' and/or 'b', then the extrema will NOT change". So is that the case? Let's find out

To find the relative extrema, aka local extrema, we plug in h ' (x) = 0
h ' (x) = -10a(-2x+1)^4
0 = -10a(-2x+1)^4
so either
-10a = 0 or (-2x+1)^4 = 0
The first part is all we care about. Solving for 'a' gets us a = 0.
But there's a problem. It's clearly stated that 'a' is nonzero. So in any other case, the value of 'a' doesn't lead to altering the path in terms of finding the extrema. We'll focus on solving (-2x+1)^4 = 0 for x. Also, the parameter b is nowhere to be found in h ' (x) so that's out as well.
